CIRCLE A (7) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 7 lengths over 1600m at this track as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with two wins from three runs. At peak and is a strong performer this extra distance here. Top chance again. DAESEONG STAR (8) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when tenth and beaten 21 lengths over 1800m at this track. Meets some better types this time but this looks well within his grasp. ONE PUNCH DRAGON (1) was prominent in the run and gave a sight when fresh from a spell last start, finishing second over 1800m at this track. Has two wins when second-up and will strip much fitter for this. Among the winning hopes. MY EMPIRE (9) last appeared when he finished second over 1600m at this track on May 23. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
